Bill,

I run 2 PSI in both the 3 and 4 with the H6 SUs. Cars have never run smoother 
since I canned the mechanical pumps.

I use a regulator with gauge that I got from Jegs but I cant remember the 
brand. But it works for what they call "low pressure" fuel systems.

Has 1 intake and 2 outlets. Outlet 1 for the carbs and outlet 2 for the gauge.

Someone on this list recommended the Jegs site and the gauge by model number 
about 2 years ago. Might want to check the archives.
